$Helen Brown\u2014The Bend We Love$

Helen Brown's July exhibit, “The Bend We Love”, opens at Tumalo Art Co. July 5 from 3-7pm during the Old Mill District’s First Friday Gallery Walk, highlighting some of the more beloved places in Bend and Central Oregon. Some are iconic, like the Tower Theatre, Old Mill Stacks and Drake Park, and some are more obscure. All are viewed through an artist's eye with a twist in the perspective, and with the affection residents and visitors feel for this area.
An award-winning watercolorist, Helen paints on rice paper using her signature batik technique which utilizes wax resistance to build up the colors and layers. She painting various subjects that capture her interest, from landscapes to statues and musical instruments, with an emphasis on the unusual angle, textures and often, whimsy.
